Meepo too becomes ever more agitated; not only to keep up his fascade of helplessness, but also because things are going from bad to worse. His quarry now had so many travelling companions it would be almost impossible to complete his mission. Also his keen senses had been prickling for the last minute or so. Something was out there in the dark, possibly a presence he'd felt a few times when he was stalking his prey. A rival perhaps?

Meepo shudders as he thinks of what his Patronesses would do to him if he lost his quarry to a rival.

[color=green:3tee1gaa]Feeling the unease within the party a smile spread across his lips, as he felt the touch of feet against the ground, before they knew there was trouble.

"Come out ssshadowed one, I feel your weight upon my precioussss earth. I felt your stepsss creep along the way. Though i do not know your intentionsss your pause give me reason to beleive an assasssssin could be your path of life. Let alone you make my traveling companionsss uneasy, It iss so much harder to hunt when your own hunting party cannot take any sstepsss to the goal. Due to either fear or ssimply lack of faith in oness self to defend themselvesss. Either way you are frightening the group. Do come out and play. Unlessssssss your own fear holds you back from ssuch a powerful yet motly group."

Said with sarcastic venom driping maliciously from every word. A notible hisss can now be heard in his voice. His skin begain to shine as if it were wet the tatoos on his body become more visable and the fine creases become more visable to resemble that of a snakes skin. [/color:3tee1gaa]

Tebryn eyes Elrohir and sighs [i:294e2i02]Oh well I guess we get a show now all we need is dinner. So there is someone following us. How quaint for us, we sure do seem popular.[/i:294e2i02] "Pardon me I thought it best if I see even in magical darkness." Tebryn concentrates a moment and utters a few arcane phrases. With that he peers behind them and searches for any forms that may be following them.

Ears perking to the lewd comments about who he is.

"No no no my dear no snake monk am I."

looks her in her eyes (she would view true reptilian eyes. Purple in color you know with the verticle slits lol)

"I am the SSSSnake." He said in a low quiet voice that seemed to project to her ears only.

Raising an eyebrow at Elrohir, Tebryn asks "That is quite an interesting change you do there. Now you say you see or saw someone following us? And motly might just be the adequate description of our 'little party'." Tebryn peers into the gloom and speaks up "You there, we know you are there. Why not come out and speak with us. Hide and Seek really isn't our cup of tea, friend.
Now don't be shy." Tebryn urges.

[color=green:3enjfj2e] OOC: Sorry bout that avatar and name threw me off a bit called him a girl srry lol

IC: *Chuckles lightly to himself at Xandars comments.*

"Its a wonder how such Sssarcassim made it to the surface. But i would figure all men are capable of anything."

Turning over to Tebryn.

"I never heard saw or even smelled it. I feel it just like i can feel all of the parties weight and movements on the ground. It has currently stoped moveing so i know not where it is. But i last felt it over in that direction." *Points to the general vacinity of the new comer.*

"Shall we go and Investigate?"

He says to Tebryn with a sly wicked smile across his face> Tebryn would notice that when he blinks they blink not horazontle but verticle from the sides. His hands begin to glow a dark dark green and the scent of rotting earth fills the air about him. As he takes a few steps twords the direction of the new comer. [/color:3enjfj2e]

"Are you saying that you are not a man then? And let me illuminate the area you felt the intruder in" With that Tebryn concentrates and Dancing Lights appear in the area where Elrohir indicated. "How about we don't rush in. No need to be hasty. If you wish to investigate that's fine by me, but I rather stay here and see what comes of our 'friend'."

[color=green:13f1rwq5]His smile fades as he stares blankly at Tebryn.

"Well arnt we just the party pooper. And to figure some one is actually doing something round here rather then stand there with a finger in their nose. For all we know it could be a Red dragon in disguise ready to morph and burn us all to crisp. I for one am not waiting. Only those who fear death....Wait."

His smile returned and he sprinted off streight into the trunk of a tree and dissapears within it. Only to reapear as a six foot black viper hanging on the branches above the general area of our newcomer. To have a peak at our new friend or Foe.[/color:13f1rwq5]

As Elrohir moves off Tebryn shakes his head and mutters "Well a finger in my nose is a lot safer than doing what he just did. As for fearing death it's not that I fear it , it 's just that I have much more imporant things to do, like live for example." [i:3ih0k5dr] Yes that and of course I fear not making any profit this trip. That would be really terrible.[/i:3ih0k5dr]

OOC: Sorry guys. I lack reliable internet so Ive been backed up and forced to catch up on more urgent ( and arguably more important) Things in what little I am able to do on the net.

IC: Zetsume would stand to his feet once he was addressed and proven discovered, yet he remained silent constantly anylizing his options while he allowed the group before him to debate their next move. Each of the group called him out of hiding, yet he never responded. He made no further attempt to hide, nor did he oblige them by stepping out into more clear view. After a few moments he saw as one of them runs off into brush to one side followed by an annomus snake appearing in a few a few yards away.

He again places a hand on his sword, waiting to see if he would be forced to use it. He knew he would survive a meer ten seconds in direct combat with the entire group, and thats only if he were lucky. But, with the wisdom of a survivor, he figured he may have to inflict a couple wounds during his retreat.... that is if the pacafist black skinned humans dared to attack first.

Zetsume turns is head offering a slight glare towards the odd snake creature in the tree less then a dozen foot falls away. While it had been painful to do so, he kept himself in the infraspectrum to make tracking easier. At least it was easier when both him and his prey were in the shadows.

He wore the typical trappings of a human theif or assassin. He has been stripped of the majority of his tell-tale drow toys. He wore a hardened studded leather tunic, dyed black. He also wore leather greaves which were equally dyed black. Over these he was wearing a pwafwi, enchanted with the typical invisability spell which was fading and fialing due to prolonged exposure to star and moonlight. Each article of his clothing was lined with countless small daggers, a rediculess amount by most opinions. The majority of them were throwing daggers, little larger then a common fingernail file. Yet in backup their were a few daggers a bit larger, intended for handheld use.

After a very well prolonged delay, he turns towards the snake figure again to offer a reply to the question given. " My Purpose here? Hmm... How does reconnaissance sound then? "
